Miraal Habib
@miraalhabib
I build immersive real-time visual installations, interactive media, and ecological stories through creative coding.
What I'm looking for
I've created immersive visual systems for Magna Events, Echoes of Earth, and Inside The Light, translating data, movement, and narrative into large-scale interactive experiences.
For Magna Events, I designed a 200,000-particle data sculpture driven by hourly energy-pricing data and configured a 24x4m display for a 500-attendee corporate event. At Echoes of Earth, I co-designed and installed two large-scale stages for an eco-music festival attended by more than 20,000 visitors.
My work combines filmmaking, generative systems, creative coding, VFX, and ecological storytelling. I use TouchDesigner to develop real-time visuals, motion-driven design, spatial lighting concepts, and interactive installations.
I've also produced video, VFX, and social content, and my projects include the VR experience Azadi Ki Tara and the immersive audiovisual work (Dis)Orient, both connected to Manifest:io in Berlin.
